    Doc kills bugs and grubs in the lawn and around the house using the double kill product. This product is applied to the lawn generally twice a year or whenever a pest problem occurs. It will kill bug at the surface level then when watered in will kill beetles and grubs below the surface.

    Nothing better than getting verbal approval from those passing by to justify the hard work!

    I used to think I needed trees in my yard to keep the grass green, It hasn't rained here in South Texas in almost three months and thanks to just following your calendar suggestions my yard looks like the Northern Pacific forest of Washington State. I get people walking by in the evenings like like those folks commenting on how nice the yard looks. It really is rewarding to have a great lawn. And it doesn't take much money to get started and maintain it.

    And the double kill smell good too. A molasses aroma. Drowns out the fertilizer smell. But it does work.

    Doc - love the videos. Your advice has helped my lawn tremendously. One question - and sorry if you may have answered it before. Will there ever be a St. Augustine lawn care guide? In absence of that, I've been following the Bermuda lawn care guide for my St. Augustine. Results are good so far but curious if you would advise that or not?

  • @polocash11

    I wanted to plant seed this year but, before I could do it, the temps are in the 100's. No rain. San Antonio TX. I have a lot of shade in front yard. I lost my Bermuda with shade and the freeze last year. Contemplating thinning out live oak, but what was about a 6" diameter is now un-huggable.
    Would like to grow bermuda again, but probably too much shade. Zoysia is 2nd and tall fescue 3rd. Most have St Augustine. Will aerate when planting seed.
    Looks like I need to treat yard for weeds and soil until cooler, late Sept.

    The double kill actually didn't get rid of the ants for me. I noticed no ants for a few days after application/watering and then they were all back. Not sure what happened.

  • @NoBite2
    @NoBite2 Před 2 lety

    Doc, we live in rural western KY on several acres. We have a serious mole problem! I’m assuming the moles are eating grubs and getting rid of the grubs will encourage the moles to leave. Is that correct? Or, do you have other recommendations for getting rid of moles? Thank you!

    Hi Doc! I actually spread some duo kill in April. My husband and I installed a sprinkler system and came across a few grub worms. I’m seeing a few Beatles and my backyard is developing some small dead patches similar to what you showed in your video. Is it safe to throw down a light coat of duo kill again? Or perhaps spray some Sevin? I’m in San Antonio and we’re expecting triple digits this week. The rest of the lawn looks great. Thanks for any input and your lawn is looking beautiful!

    A company did my grub control late fall last year, because we had millions of beetles and did a huge damage to my roses and crape myrtle trees. I was hoping I will never see them again, yesterday we got flooded again by these ugly bugs. I'm so sad. When is the time to do this ? Can I do it again now ? We have the lure and bags out there and it's catching a lot of them but I don't know what to do anymore. My roses and trees 😣😣

    Hi Doc, does the Andersons company sell a version of their The Andersons DuoCide Professional-Grade Lawn Insect Control product which can be sold to those of us in California. I've been following your instructional videos and my lawn looks far better than it has ever. I do however have a grub problem and would like to take it before it spreads. Thank you for videos.

      Loosen the bolt that holds the wheel arm up. (square head bolt) Drop it down on cement and retighten. If that doesn't work try replacing the drive belt. That only takes a few minutes. Did that on our GK and it was the problem.

    Hi Doc, I bought Double Kill (DuoCide) a couple of weeks ago.
    Will a heavy dew be good enough for the initial topical break down of the particles?
    I am trying to put down the product when rain is forecasted. The city has a lawn watering restriction in place due to water tower maintenance.
    I have been holding off putting down any products until we get some rain. (DuoCide, PGF Complete, Dirt Booster, Green Shocker)
    Your lawn looks amazing! thx, tommy

      And I want to tell you because of the awesome results you get with The Andersons products since I subscribed to your channel in 2019. This year (2022 season) I decided to buy all Andersons products for my lawn/grass.
      I am from Texas; all I have ever known and used on my SA grass are Scotts products. Please don't hold it against me...lol
      I have been putting a lot of time, effort and money since 2019 to get my lawn/grass back into shape. I had let it go for many years.
      Watching your lawn care videos encouraged me to put more effort into my lawn. My lawn/grass is no where near the class as your lawns/grass. But my SA lawn has come a long way and looks better each year.
      Please keep posting lawn care videos!
